All in all, Forgive me Father 2 was a welcome surprise that tested my very rusty skills with fast-paced action sequences and a very cool Lovecraftian vibe. Even after finishing it once, I’m very keen to check out the other story paths, and to try and 100% all the levels. If you like fast FPS games then put this on your radar, because much like Cthulu, you should not sleep when there’s mayhem to be had.

While Forgive Me Father 2 is a fun title with excellent art and some wonderfully spooky Lovecraftian elements, I feel like the gameplay can be a bit too simple, repetitive, and even frustrating at times. While it is definitely a true portrayal of a beloved genre, I personally would mix things up by introducing more boss fights, power diversity, and maybe even more enemy types. That being said, you’ll be hard-pressed not to enjoy what’s already on offer.

A quality boomer shooter. A good variety of levels and environments, with a good sized collection of weapons and choice of abilities to get through them with. The music was pretty enjoyable. And the boss fights all played pretty uniquely. I think it did better than the first game in every way.

Forgive Me Father 2 is a good boomer shooter that builds on the ideas of the original. The action is fast and pretty brutal, with a focus on delivering as many headshots as possible while moving constantly to avoid damage. The Asylum and its unlocks allow gamers to try out strategies and find weapons that match their approach. The game’s atmosphere is designed to appeal to players who like Lovecraft vibes, although it does not offer much in the way of straight-up horror. Forgive Me Father 2 improves on an already established formula but needs extra weirdness or one big innovative mechanic.

A shooter that doesn’t reinvent R’lyeh. Forgive Me Father 2 captivates with relentless action, fantastic visuals, a top-tier metal soundtrack, and wonderfully old-school gameplay. It occasionally gets tangled in level design and its own story, but overall, it’s an awesome, fast-paced boomer shooter perfect for letting off steam.

Forgive Me Father 2 is a great throwback to the golden age of shooters, pushing you to your limits of your own abilities and your sanity.

Forgive Me Father 2 is a throwback FPS with a stylish Lovecraftian presentation. If you're craving a slick arena shooter to play for a few hours then this is a good option, although the pedestrian level design and short campaign holds it back from competing with the best in the genre.

A solid sequel that both streamlined and added some more complexity to the series. It picks right back up with the priest who is battling to keep his sanity as the Cthulhu monster is still attempting to corrupt him inorder to use him as a vessel to bring about unimaginable horrors to the work so you must confront your sins of old and make choices on how to absolve yourself of them should you choose. I think the game did what it meant to and while i think its stumbles in some of its execution and adding layers where there didnt need to be any i still thought it was a solid game but not one i will think about much moving forward

Very bad optimization, bugs. Long levels, small number of them. Low level of dynamics compared to the previous part.
